Video: Why did we record this course in four different DAWs?

Much like my course, Remixing Techniques: Time Stretching, I felt it was important to bring four different digital audio workstations together again under a common theme: arranging. I believe that the success of a musical arrangement lies within the individual, not the technology. The DAW is merely the vehicle, and as arrangers, remixers, and producers, I believe that you should have the ability to use different DAWs for different parts of the arranging process. While this course isn't about editing in these specific DAWs, I have found that the more comfortable I am in different DAWs, the more opportunities I have to find work and collaborate with other people.
